CNN redefines Race to include religion...

At no point did Donald Trump suggest racial profiling. He suggested we do what Israel does and profile Muslims, because Muslims perpetrate the vast
majority of terrorist attacks on planet Earth.

Got that far and realized this is a xenophobia thread and no amount of logic will aid. Wallow in fear.

Can you be specific about what part you quoted that is wrong?

I didn't say wrong. It's actually expected. I'm just saying that no amount of logic will change the fearful. And quite frankly you've gotta change the
anthem. It isn't the "Land of the Brave" anymore.

TRUMP: But in -- in San Bernardino, they saw bombs laying around the apartment...
HANNITY: They didn't want to say anything.
TRUMP: -- in the apartment. And people saw it. And they wanted to be -- they called it racial profiling. We didn't want to call in because of
racial profiling. In other words, a lawyer got to them and said you've got a problem here, you knew this was there, say racial
profiling. But look, we have -- whether it's racial profiling or politically correct, we'd better get smart. We are letting tens of
thousands of people into our country. We don't know what what the hell we're doing.

So please explain the process by which the US created the Barbary pirates again ...

That's it? Inane obfuscation? I feel like I need a shower just replying to this.

It's not inane obfuscation.

If you want to claim that the terrorists exist because we made them then we need to go back to the root of the terrorist problem with the Middle East
for the US and that would be the Barbary pirates who started raiding our merchant marines and enslaving our sailers as soon as we started sailing them
as a nation.

No, ever seen a Uiyger? What about a Chechen? Then there are North Africans ...

Yes. I know this. If you read my statement again, you will see that I was remarking on what the perception is.

I know that Muslims look like everyone else across the world. I was explaining that calling for a ban on "Muslims" means that Trump wants to profile
people of Mediterranean descent (and not the real Muslims.)

I would bet that your picture of Christian pretty much expands to include anybody and everybody, but when youthink of Muslims, it's a Mediterranean
type man with black hair and beard and olive skin, right? If someone said "go out and round up the Muslims" that's what you'd look for, right?

Ever stop and think that is because that is how the media wants us to view them? Funny thing is your description makes me think Persian, but I have a
half a grasp on the differences of some of the nationalities that are Muslim. Most everyday people get their info from the news and really barely
grasp what is going on in the world. Add to that the lack of interest for the most part to the subject when they were being taught about it, we are
seeing the media redefining things to fit narratives. They are using the ignorance of the populace to re-educate and that is a problem.

My bold. That was 4x in one statement.

This was not Trumps speech on profiling that he gave yesterday. In his speech suggesting profiling, he did not mention race.

This speech you are referencing, he is saying people say strange behavior in San Benradino, but were afraid to be accused of racial profiling if they
called it in.

This is not saying we should racially profile, he is saying if we see something we think is indicative of terrorism, we should be afraid to be accused
of racially profiling and call the authorities.
